The Worst Bosses in Elden Ring

5. Spirit-Caller Snail

This creature hardly counts as a boss, but it serves as one in some dungeons. This wimpy slug doesn't even fight you personally, no it summons a couple of knights to do the dirty work for it! You can shorten the fight by simply looking for the glowing snail. Repeat a few times and you're done! Boooring! | © FromSoftware

4. Fallingstar Beast

The fact is that the Starfall beast is incredibly frustrating to fight. Not only the first time, but also the dozens of times after that. Of course, some cheesy methods have been discovered in the meantime, such as running past the boss and then returning via the exit to poison him without even drawing the weapon, mind you. Honestly, just the fact that you have to consider such a method says it all... | © FromSoftware

3. Dragonkin Soldier

The Dragon Soldier from Nokstella is pretty cool in itself, in terms of its moves and looks. But here's the big BUT: Combat still feels incredibly tough and annoying, as it's difficult to deal damage to him consistently, and he's just far too common as an enemy type. He may not be the hardest, but he still sucks like a big one! | © FromSoftware

2. Rune Bear

The Rune Bear will probably show up in any list that has anything to do with how annoying or bad something is in Elden Ring. If the Rune Bear blows you away, it's simply because it's absolutely OP, not because it has any exciting movement or cool tricks. Just boring and frustrating! | © FromSoftware

Elden Ring (read our review here) is full of beautifully designed areas and enemies. Or should we rather say gruesomely beautiful? But even big companies like FromSoftware can have failures in their games. And we want to show you those in this small but wonderful gallery.

The intense boss battles in Elden Ring push us to the brink of madness, yet we relish every moment because of their sheer breathtaking nature. However, there are a few bosses that are exceptionally challenging, leaving us incredulous as to who could possibly defeat them. Well then, brace yourselves and enjoy the challenge!
